3.PANORÁMA TRAIL
A trail marathon that connects three magnificent castles in the fabulous woodlands of Zemplén, Hungary. Many of you have probably never been there, yet, but our family roots are in this region. We spend a lot of time there, frequently visiting the three most important stations of the Panorama Trail - Boldogkő Castle, Castle of Regéc, and the Castle of Füzér. A couple of years ago, when the reconstruction of the castles started, we began dreaming about this competition and then developed the Panorama Trail concept. The reconstruction work on the castles has preserved and enhanced their beauty. They are now an impressive venue for our trail event. The forests of Zemplén are especially spectacular in their autumn colors. We invite you to participate in this special running event either as individual runners or to compete as a team of three. Starting from the Boldogkő Castle, we will head for the Castle of Regéc and finish at the Castle of Füzér.
